SBS2003 Group Policy to Force a favorite in IE on Client Machines

I have a SBS 2003 network and I am trying to force a favorite in the IE of all the users. We have implimented a new accounting software that is IE based, so the link is needed. Is there a way to push this to all the users IE?

ok, an OU is an Organisational Unit. This essentially is a folder within your Active Directory structure, see the image below.

In this example the MyBusiness folder is an OU. Here there are several GPO (Group Policy Objects) linked, any users/computers that exist under this folder/structure will have any GPOs applied.

What you need to do is to create a new GPO on the correct OU for what your situation requires. This may well be (If a standard SBS installation applys) under MyBusiness -> Users -> SBSUsers. Create and link a new GPO, then follow my advice above to edit and locate the relevant area.

Once you have this done, simply get your clients to logoff/on (or goto the command line and type gpupdate /force) and the policy, if correctly assigned, will be applied.
